There's another one in Kugane near the hot springs, and there's one in the Shirogane housing area.
Also... you're not quite done with that big one in Kugane I'm afraid. Reaching the top is the penultimate goal for it. There's a sightseeing log in the main square below it that is reached by jumping off the top of the tower and hoping you land on it. Or happen to be lucky enough to walk by when someone is on it giving rezz-ports up to it for blue mages.
Bokairo Inn has a jumping puzzle up to the roof and I think there is a hot tub at the top for to wash away the hard work getting there. Just what I've heard. Never done it myself to the top. I get so far and 1 section stumps me lol
My old FC made a jumping puzzle out of our large Carbuncle house once. That was fun.
Moonfire Faire just ended had one and yes the Leap of Faith GATE in the GS is one with a few variations so it's not always the same route up.
Though Kugane is the biggest and longest you'll encounter.
Moonfire Faire was both fun and frustrating. I tried it off and on while it was around. Never made it all the way up. Furthest I got was missing the jump to the second corner pillar.
To be fair, I hate jumping puzzles in this game too, MMO's are rarely designed for them and it feels clunky to me.
However, others seem to love them, they aren't much strain on development resources and they usually just offer tiny vanity rewards so you don't miss much by not doing them. So I'd be perfectly fine with them adding more.
I loved Leap of Faith in the Gold Saucer. I'm fairly new to the game so I haven't done any others but YES... more jumping puzzles please. Keep them optional and offer some kind of small reward (hell even just checking something off as having done it, I'm guessing most of them now are associated with vista's right?) ... and I think that'd make everyone happy. I'd do them all eventually!
For what it was, the Kugane one wasnt absolutely terrible. The game could have jumping puzzles as Kugane demonstrates it pretty well at parts. The issue I have with Kugane was how unforgiving it was. I rather they have more clever jumping puzzles than ones that if you miss the jump you fall down to the very beginning.
